Herbicides

It is a selective, systemic post-emergence herbicide. It belongs to the class of chloroacetamide herbicides and inhibition of Very Long Chain Fatty Acids (VLCFA). It is taken up readily by the hypocotyls, mesocotyls and coleoptiles, and, to a lesser extent, by the roots of germinating weeds.

It is a selective, pre-emergence dinitroaniline herbicide which is mainly absorbed through the coleoptile and hypocotyl of weeds and prevents the germination of the weed seed through cell division blockage in the hypocotyl, as well as the development of the root system. It is not transferable in plants. Increasing the diameter of the root, causing swelling in the meristem area of the root tip, preventing the production of lateral roots are the symptoms of using this herbicide.
